CONVERT THE DISCONTENMENT AGAINST GOVERNMENT
DECISION INTO STRIKING ACTION
The discontentment among the entire central government employees
are emerging across the country. All the Federations, All India Associations
representing the Central Government Employees and Workers of various Government
organizations, with oneness condemned the NDA Governments decision to accept
the retrograded recommendations of the 7th Central Pay Commission.
The central government employees of the entire country under the
banner of National Joint Council of Action (NJCA) has already been decided to
go for indefinite strike from 11th July 2016 if the Government has
not change the adverse recommendations of the 7th CPC.
After the submission of the 7th CPC Report by its
Chairman to the Government of India on 19th November 2015,
Government constituted a Empowered Committee of Secretaries (ECoS) under the
Chairmanship of Cabinet Secretary to scrutinize the recommendations of the Pay
commission. The ECoS sat on the Pay Commission report more than 6 months,
exactly 200 days, but didn’t see any adverse recommendations.
As the Pay Commission cheated the Empowered Committee also
cheated and betrayed the Employees and knifed behind. Whenever the Leaders met
either the Pay Commission or the Empowered Committee including its Chairman,
they shared the concern of the employees with respect to the recommendations of
the minimum pay, multiple factor, etc and assured the rectification at a
certain level.
But when the Cabinet note prepared and submitted for he
consideration of the Cabinet everything became once again retrograded and not a
single recommendations on financial impact has been considered by the
Government.
Thus the NDA Government once again became the butcher of the
central government employees. By introducing the New Pension Scheme (No Pension
Scheme) during the Vajpayee government the BJP and its alliance has shown their
attitude towards the Government Employees. Now they cemented their anti labour
attitude by endorsing all retrograded recommendations of the 7th
Central Pay Commission.
The Cabinet Secretary and Secretaries of various ministries who
all were the members of the ECoS pocketed a salary hike of 24% to 25% while
awarding pay hike of a mere 14% to the Group C & Group B employees. They
were not found any discrepancy in accepting even this recommendation of mere
14.2% increase in the salary of lowest paid employees against 25% to
Secretaries. Thus the ratio of minimum pay to maximum from 1:12, it shoot up to
1:14. Instead of the gap being reduced, it has been further increased by the
Pay Commission and without any humanitarian approach the “so called popular
government” accepted the same. After various deduction for Medical, PF, tax,
License Fee, etc, the increase in the take home salary at the entry level
becomes less than 8% to all non gazette employees.
It is to be noted that after the independence the Government
Employees got 6 Pay revisions including the 7th CPC. All Pay Commission
reports were given gradual increase in the hike of salary such as 14% (2nd
CPC), 20.6 (3rd CPC), 27.6% (4th CPC), 31% (5th
CPC) and 54% (6th CPC). It should be also noted that when 14% hike
was recommended by the 2nd CPC, the Central Government employees for
the first time in the history gone for indefinite strike, when Jawaharlal Nehru
was the Prime Minister with a thundering majority in the Parliament. Now the
Modi Government also with same situation with “strong Government’ with a
thumping majority back stabbed the entire central government employees by
offering just 14.2% hike in the salary and thus a situation created just like
that of 2nd CPC and compelled the entire Central Government
Employees to move on indefinite strike. It is worse ever pay revision for
central government employees since independence.
It is worth mentioning here that the Government owned website of
Agricultural Ministry depicts the retail prices of commodities which go into
the basket of minimum wage based on Dr. Akkroyed formula as approved by the 15th
Indian Labour Conference. If we calculate the minimum pay according to these
figures the Minimum pay as on 01.01.2015 would be Rs. 24850. To convert the
same as on 01.01.2016 3% assumed DA will be added as suggested by the 7th
CPC, the final computation will be Rs25596 and thus rounded off to Rs. 26000.
The then Andhra Pradesh State Government has implemented the state Pay
Commission which provided Rs. 22600 as minimum wage as on 01.07.2013. By adding
the DA dues in between 2013 and 2015, the corresponding figure to Rs. 22600
shall be Rs. 27000 as on 01.01.2016.
The concern on Minimum pay is not the only one issue in respect
of the pay revision. There is en number of anomalies recommended by the Pay
Commission and all those issues have been brought to the notice of the ECoS.
But none of the issue was considered by the Committee or the Cabinet while
taking decision. Recommendations on Fitment Formula, Increment rate, Fixation
benefit on promotion, MACP on grade hierarchy, Pay Parity, Revision of
Allowances, Leaves, National Pension Scheme abolition, etc are some of the
issues raised by the NJCA and its constituent units. Now the Government came
out with a decision to constitute another Committee to review the recommendations
on allowances. This is nothing but a gimmick to delay the implementation of the
revision of allowance at a prospective date. Thus the Government will get the
opportunity to avoid the payment of revised allowances from 1st
January 2016 by which again will stab the employees behind once again.
The Committee under the chairmanship of none other than Cabinet
Secretary who should be the role model of the entire Central Government
Employees could not recommend even a single correction in the discrepancies
sighted out in the recommendations of 7th CPC even after sitting 8
months on that, what would be best can expect another committee probably headed
by the same persons. These Cadre Officers become the tools of their political
bosses and fulfilled the directions of the Government who all are controlled by
Adanis, Ambanis and other Industrialists who don’t want to hike the salaries
and perks of the Government Employees.
- If the Government and the ECoS doesn’t want to revise the Minimum Pay what was the necessity to hold the report for a8 months after its submission to the Government?
- Why the Government failed to give an opportunity to the leaders of the Central Government employees to present their case before taking the final decision?
- Why the Finance Minister who compared wrongly the number of months taken by the earlier Government took decision on Pay Commission recommendation forget to compare that those Government entrusted Group of Ministers to interact with the elected leaders of the Government employees before reaching a conclusion? Is it authoritarian approach of the Modi Government?
- Why the political party who leading the Government and claims the single largest trade union of the country belongs to them not even ready to hear the leaders of that trade union?
- Why the Government not considered to retain the ratio of minimum to maximum pay at least the existing, i.e.1:12 by awarding minimum pay as Rs. 21000 comparing the higher salary of Rs. 2, 50,000 (2, 50,000/12 = 20,833)?
- What the purpose going to serve delaying the revision of allowances than extending benefit to the employees at a later date?
- What the reason not to accept the hike in the subscription in CGEIS from the existing rate of 30, 60,120 and 240 to 1500, 2500 & 5000? The chart given below gives the answer. If the enhanced rate of subscription for CGEIS retained the take home salary for the month of January 2016 for all non gazetted employees shall be less than the salary he/she got for the month of December 2015.
- Though the Government echoed the claim of the Pay commission that the central Government employees are given a bonanza of 14.2% pay hike, the factual position is that pay hike is just above 4 to 8%. That too only because the Government decided to shelve the subscription hike for CGEIS.
The below given chart
shows the actual benefit extended to the employees:

From the above chart it can be seen
that more than 50% of the increase proposed by the pay revision is taken back
by various deduction. Columns No. 4 & 7 in the above chart indicates the
hike in salary based on the pay commission proposal and after the deduction
respectively and the columns 5 & 9 shows it in percentage. In actual the
increase in take of home salary shall be just 4% to 8% in almost all the pay
structure announced by the Government and not that of 14.2% or 23.5%.
- The pay hike given to the employees based on the recommendations of the 6th Central Pay Commission is almost equal or nearer to that of the 7th Central Pay Commission. At the lowest grade in fact the pay hike given by 6th CPC is higher than that of 7th CPC. The hike in salary by 7th CPC at the entry level pay with Grade Pay of Rs. 1800 is Rs.2250 per month, whereas in the lowest grade in the pre revised pay of Rs. 2550 – 3200, after the implementation of 6th CPC Report, got the hike of Rs. 2257. It should be noted here that the 6th Pay revision was carried out 10 years back in the year 2006 and DA component has been added @ 125% as on 1st January 2016. So if that DA component is added to the increase in hike of the 6th CPC, minimum hike should be more than Rs5000 (2257 X 125%) at the entry level. The chart given below has been further showing the discrepancies in the hike in salary. The columns 5 and 9 of the chart given below shows the hike in figure and the columns 6 an d10 shows the increase in % respectively during 6th CPC and 7th CPC.

Under this circumstance the central
government employees doesn’t have an option that to be unite and protest
against the Government‘s decision. The NJCA thus decided to continue the
struggle against the unilateral and arbitrary decision taken by the Government
to accept the recommendations of the 7th Central commission Report.
It is for the first time after
independence, the entire central government employees from Railways, Defence,
Postal, Income Tax, Central Excise, Audit & Account, Atomic Energy, Space,
Civil Accounts, Central Secretariat,
Ground Water, etc etc are came together and unanimously decided to go
for industrial action against the decision of the Government.
It is the high time
for more unity and joint struggle. There should not be any excuses for not to
join in the main stream of the movement. Running away from the unity is nothing
stabbing behind the colleagues. Keep away all differences, ideological or
personnel and become part of the united movement of the Central Government
employees under the banner of NJCA to fight against our dictatorial government.
We appeal all Nuclear Workers to join
in the struggle by participating in the INDEFINITE STRIKE from 11th
July 2016. Don’t be sit in the fencing and be onlooker of the historical
struggle. Be a part of the struggle for protecting our existence, for upheld
the self-respect of each and every central government employees. Surrendering
to the authoritarian government will lose the dignity of each and every worker.
Hence we appeal to all join for unity and participate in the struggle……..
Join in the daily
demonstrations……
Participate in the
Protest meeting on 8th July 2016…….
